In these lectures, given just before the start of World War I, Rudolf Steiner describes the panoramic reality of the spiritual worlds encountered by human beings after death. He speaks of the joys and sufferings experienced in those worlds by people of different characters, the vision of the "ideal human being" that souls experience, the cosmic midnight hour, the deeper causes behind such phenomena as materialism and criminality, the processes leading to rebirth in the world of the senses, and why, in the flesh, we must lose our direct perception of the spiritual worlds.Steiner also shows how the modern spiritual quest can be built on the foundation of modern science, and describes in detail some of the methods through which direct perception of the worlds of soul and spirit can be developed.Steiner, Rudolf is the author of 'Inner Nature of Man', published 1995 under ISBN 9781855840119 and ISBN 1855840111.
